Dianne has given all her fellow pulmonary rehabbers both hope and strength with her oh so positive attitude and continued friendships and sharing the complexities of COPD. I will so miss her....only wish we'd known services were today. Love and that STRONG strength is needed now..take care Michelle and family.

My name is Melody Hargett Harrison, I live in Atlanta. Diane and I were in Huguley Elem School together for 8 years. The sweetest person I have ever met. I know she loved her family and I followed her on Facebook where "we chatted". My blessings and love go out to you her family. Melody

Diane was one of my classmates at Lanett High School. She was always very friendly and polite. The last time I talked with Diane was last year when she was helping prepare for our 50th class reunion and she was happy to have the opportunity to catch up with everyone in conversation even though it was difficult for her to talk. Praying that the Lord will cover her family with His peace and comfort during this difficult time.
